This paper proposes a hybrid interference alignment scheme which combines maximizing signal-toleakage-noise ratio (Max-SLNR) at transmitter and maximizing signal-to-interference-noise ratio (Max-SINR) at receiver. The proposed scheme gives the same sum rate as the existing method using Max-SINR at both transmitter and receiver by avoiding the operation of reversing channel, thus it provides a simpler solution. Furthermore, two power allocation procedures are devised based on game theory and water filling. The gain of these schemes over equal power allocation increases to 2 bit/s/Hz in correlated fading channels as large-scale fading becomes significant. Additionally, user fairness is solved by introducing weighting factors.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
